First motorcycle I owned was at 15, many moons ago.
Was my Schwinn bicycle on which I added a 3HP Tecumseh engine.
Used an old lawnmower friction drive directly to the back wheel.
Motor was mounted on top of the back wheel and to the side, a little top heavy, but what the heck.
Pedal to get it started then hold on, would get up to 45 MPH.
Definitely not street legal.

That’s pretty much what I did. Bolted the engine to a hunk of plywood though.
